*ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED* GIVEAWAY: DevLearn is coming — want to join us? 🎉

I’ve had my eye on DevLearn ever since I stumbled across it just days before it kicked off last year—right after I landed in my current role. It felt like discovering a secret party I wasn’t invited to (yet). Articuland Atlanta sold out before I could even get approved.  Since then, I’ve been cobbling together my professional development with free webinars, scrappy enthusiasm, and a lot of coffee. DevLearn would be like a Wonka golden ticket, a rare chance to immerse myself in high-quality, in-person learning and connect with others in the field. Our budget is so tight even if I was approved to take the time off, I'd have to pay myself. With my teammate going on maternity leave just two weeks after the conference, I have a tiny window to invest in development before I take on additional responsibilities shifting into solo mode through the holidays.  I also know I’ll have to miss the Training Magazine conference early next year, even if I self-fund, due to coverage needs. Attending DevLearn now would make a serious impact on my skills and confidence heading into a busy season.
